There are many actors in Bollywood today or have been in the past, for whom, a career in acting or being a movie star was not really a dream. The long list of actors and actresses include the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar and others. Latest to join this list is Bollywood diva Disha Patani, who opened up about her days in Bareilly and her dreams growing up.

Though, when we think of the 26-year-old actress today, we only gasp about her sizzling Instagram posts and box-office success with films like M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016), which made over Rs 216 crore and Baaghi 2 (2018), which made over Rs 250 crore at the worldwide box-office.

But back in the day, when the actress was growing she didn’t even aspire to be an actress, rather the Bareilly girl had a completely different dream and later a conventional career path which didn’t lead to Bollywood. It was not until an unforseen set of circumstances that led her to Mumbai and eventually to the giltz and glamour of the Hindi film industry.

“I remember I could never imagine being an actor because that's something I did not do when I was young. I was more into studies and I wanted to be a pilot but somehow I think destiny favoured me. I won some competition in Mumbai and I started coming to this city. I was studying B. Tech at that time. I started with a few TV commercials and quickly realised that I couldn’t live in Noida and work in Mumbai,” the actress said.

Today, Disha Patani is among the top actresses in Bollywood is also a fan favourite when it comes to her social media updates. Her glamorous avatars, resplendent fashion sense and chic outfits are often the talk of the town. And that’s not it, in addition to success and fame, the actress has also found love or so goes the rumours.

Ever since their film together (Baaghi 2) there have been several reports that the Bareilly to Bollywood girl is seeing her co-star from the film Baaghi 2. Though, the two are yet to confirm their relationship but they haven’t denied it either.

In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, the actress said that she want’s to keep her private life, private. “"I want to keep my life as personal as possible. If I was planning something, I wouldn’t share it. It’s my house, my car, my life and I want to keep these things private.”
